And, I guess it would be beneficial for some user who has insane talent and makes a frame by frame movie in paint, and wants to upload it to newgrounds, but it doesn't take wmv. which comes with any windows computer.

But, should the newgrounds uploader system support .wmv?

I mean, newgrounds IS for flash, but...I don't know..

It just should

Then we'd get a bunch of 12 year olds sending in videos, thinking they are better then the star wars series, constantly. With this, its less likely a young one will get the technology, which is both sad but good.

Well, quite honestly, newgrounds isn't and never really has been centered around live action video. It's just not the place for it. Some of these types of videos get submitted, but only so that they can be backdrops for flash animation. I mean, it is possible, I believe, to convert wmv to swf and I don't think there's any rule against submitting solely live action video as long as it isn't stolen (though I may be wrong about that), but chances are it'll get blammed.

Sorry for the double post, but I forgot that windows media player can be used for some types of animation (not that my last post was a moot point). As far as this goes, wmp is really so limited that I seriously doubt that 95% of the people using it will actually be able to create a quality animation.
